BEng (Honours) (Civil and Construction Engineering) in Bentley Australia | Curtin University

Civil engineers play a vital role in shaping our infrastructure by designing and building essential structures. They collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to create buildings, bridges, transportation networks, ports, water systems, urban developments, and other major construction projects.

With growing complexity in modern construction, ambitious projects require coordinated efforts from specialists across various fields, where civil engineers serve as pivotal team members.

This program equips students with fundamental scientific, mathematical, and hands-on competencies. These skills are applied to tackle engineering challenges while progressively building civil engineering expertise.

Students gain practical knowledge in structural engineering, geotechnical applications, transportation systems, hydraulic engineering, construction methods, and professional standards.

The final year focuses on synthesizing design, construction, and management skills through comprehensive civil engineering projects. Students conduct significant research and choose specialized coursework in structural, geotechnical, transportation, water resources, or environmental engineering.

To meet industry standards, participants complete a minimum 12-week professional exposure through engineering work experience or a blend of technical and complementary activities.

Prior to graduation, students demonstrate their ability to combine design, construction, and management competencies in large-scale projects while completing a substantial research endeavor.

The program also mandates fulfilling professional practice requirements through either direct work experience or a combination of technical and supporting professional activities.
